Customization file

You can create many customization files. When you start HCL OneTest™ UI, it reads all the customization files and stores the details in the shared memory. Further references to the customization files are made in the shared memory

Customization file syntax

The customization file is an XML file with many sections that are marked with <Section></Section> tags. Each section has a name and contains the content between the tags. The following example shows a basic section:

					<Section L=".ConfigFileSection">
					<Name>Section Name</Name>
					.
					.
					Section content
					.
					</Section >
				

Sections are optional and you can also insert empty sections also in a customization file. Each section has its own syntax. For section components that require implementation in both component models (Java™ and .NET ) there should be two <ComponentModel> tags, one for Java and .NET each:

					<ComponentModel L=".ComponentModel">
					<Name>Java</Name>
					</ComponentModel>
					<ComponentModel L=".ComponentModel">
					<Name>Net</Name>
					</ComponentModel>

The proxies section is the most commonly used section. It contains a <DomainImplementation> tag for each test domain for specifying proxy classes that are deployed and the associated application under test (AUT) class names for which the proxy is used. Within the <DomainImplementation> tag, the <Obj L=".Proxy"> tags are used for each proxy class that is established and the <UsedBy> tags specify the class name of the AUT control.

You can have more than one <UsedBy> tag for a single proxy class if you want to use the same proxy for similar controls.

You must use the <Section> tags appropriately, meeting their requirements and extension components to be deployed into the HCL OneTest™ UI framework.
